House Rules
Mages benefit from getting more spells per day from high intelligence, in the same way clerics benefit from having high wisdom. Use the same table.
Bonus languages can be used as NWP slots.
Mages and Clerics do not need to memorize, but instead get to cast straight from their spellbook/holy symbol.
